White Sox
announcer Ken “Hawk” Harrelson wants the world to know he will never step foot
again into Wrigley Field to broadcast a game.
The Hawk complained over the weekend, “[Wrigley has the] Worst press
box, worst booths for television. It’s a
joke. It really is.” That Hawk, always looking out for the little
guy.
On a related
subject, Harrelson is “writing” a book, in which he’ going to get the truth out
to counter what three unnamed critics have said about him. Here’s guessing that two of those targets
won’t be Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf and former MLB Commissioner Bud Selig. In all the years I’ve had the misfortune of
listening to him, Hawk has never made much of an effort to speak truth to
power. Cozy up to power, yes, but not
challenge it. But there’s probably a
broken-down sportswriter or ex-general manager somewhere he wants to even the
score against.
I can hardly wait.
